Arietta Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley

750mL

Vintage: 2005Region: USAppellation: Napa

ST92+ Rated 92+ points by Stephen Tanzer`s International Wine Cellar: (a blend of 76% cabernet sauvignon, 18% cab franc and 6% petit verdot) Deep ruby-red. Aromatic nose features cassis, licorice, bitter chocolate and spices. Lush, rich and stuffed with fruit, but with underlying minerality and harmonious acidity giving life to the middle palate. Intriguing floral and dried sage notes add complexity. A solidly built midweight with some youthfully firm tannins that reach the front teeth. The 2006 may have more tannins and sheer size but this wine is also in need of patience.
